All of the above....

the best has happened a number of times, working on light switches while
live. Yes you've guessed it touched both wires with my hand and the light
bulb illuminates, not a too unpleasant feeling, but not to be repeated any
more than can be helped. At present about twice/year.

Another time enough static in me to blow the PC, happened once. I think it
was due to nylon carpets and rubber soled shoes. If I walked through the
door frame I would get hit in the shoulder, even more fun was when I
touched
people, its amazing combinations of #*&"" you casn get. This
was all sorted
when I just wore leather soles ans was fine when I moved office.
